Greetings — If you are interested in providing a presentation, posterboard, or demonstration at the 2020 New Mexico TechFest next February, this is a kind reminder to submit your proposal(s) before the January 1 deadline, just about a week from now. CALL FOR TECHFEST PRESENTATIONS, POSTERBOARDS, AND DEMONSTRATIONS: The New Mexico TechFest is seeking presentations, posterboards, and demos on emerging and relevant amateur radio technical topics, techniques, and applications. If you’ve been working on a special project, are researching a technical topic, or have discovered or adopted a technology or technique that you’re applying within amateur radio, TechFest is a great venue to share your knowledge with the amateur radio community in a casual and friendly environment. Presentations will generally be 50 minutes in total length. Shorter posterboard talks and demos will also occur throughout the day. AC-powered tables will be provided to facilitate presentations and demos. Hams interested in providing a presentation, posterboard, or demonstration are asked to submit a summary/abstract of their proposed topic for consideration by January 1, 2020. Visit the New Mexico TechFest website for submission details and key dates. Rocky Mountain Ham Radio - New Mexico (RMHR-NM) is pleased to announce its sixth annual New Mexico TechFest, an ARRL-sanctioned operating specialty event, on Saturday, February 29, 2020.
